Description

Truro City Council have been successful in achieving grand funding to support improvement works to Boscawen Park as a part of the wider Truro Town Deal. An aspect of the wider masterplan in to undertake dredging works to the existing duck pond, which is currently utilised as attenuation for surface water run-off from the fields and land above.

Over a prolonged period of time the duck pond has been subject to silt deposits reducing capacity of the pond. The Town Deal master plan includes to dredge the silt out of the duck pond, including silt trap, to improve habitat provision within the area and increase capacity of water that can be stored.

The proposed works seek to improve flood capacity in the event of tidal surge and improve the public realm offering of the park.

The duck pond at Boscawen Park is a key feature of the park's landscape, but it is currently facing significant issues due to silt build up, and structural damage to some stone banks. An initial survey has been undertaken along with a Preliminary Ecological Assessment, detailing the existing conditions of the pond and identifies areas in need of maintenance, repair, or further investigation to inform the scope requirements.
